Ken Weiss works for the University of California, Davis in a unit called Distributed Computing Analysis and Support. This unit is responsible for identifying promising emerging information technologies and integrating them into the institution's overall computing and information architecture. Weiss's areas of interest are distributed databases, multimedia databases, digital libraries and resource discovery. His current projects include development of new white pages directory services, management of the campus World Wide Web site, participation in several digital library and metadata working groups, prototype image database development, and testing distributed metadata management tools. He received his undergraduate education at Vassar College, and earned an MBA from the University of Southern California. Before the Internet engulfed his life he was a partner in one of the first computer illustration studios in the United States. He was raised by a troop of baboons notable chiefly for being considered rude even by baboon standards, and retains a number of behaviors attributable to that early experience.
